Here’s a boring one from the 40 at the merce

Tilting guy opens, new guy cold calls, I three bet AsQx from the sb.

Flop is AxTs7s. I bet both call

Turn is Kx. I bet both call

River is Js

Line?

I would do the same as Chillrob, bet/call, not close.

I just realized that we have a straight; I was going to bet call with TPTK as well.

If you did that with TPTK here, I think you just made two mistakes.

I see what you mean and agree, but if we had TPTK, river would not be a 4 straight. Say river is 5s, bet call would be much closer

Yeah that's true if that was what you meant.

Yep this is a bet/call and it’s not close. A more interesting question is what the bottom of your value bet range looks like on this board.

My guesstimate is that I'd be betting all my two pair and better.

What's kind of funny here is that it is very hard to figure out what bluffs we could have on this river because all of our natural bluffs came in.

I guess so, if you folded the best hand. If someone had a flush you saved money though, and based on live reads that could have been the best play. Was there a showdown?

No, the bettor said he had AK which I did not believe

I don’t think you play poorly. You seem to overthink the river sometimes

Why? What do you think the two guys most likely had?

I mean, I was chopping at beast with the raiser. The other guy probably had a weaker two pair

It’s easy to be a Monday morning quarterback but had you bet and there was a raise and reraise I think you could have safely folded and if you bet and were raised it’s a pretty standard call.

Where is merce?

Interesting.

I’ve been playing at the Commerce for 35 years and I’ve never heard anyone refer to it as the Merce but the name makes sense.
